External Stencil Solutions For Concrete
DESCRIPTION
Stenciled concrete is a system of adding colour, pattern and texture to a plain concrete slab at the time of pouring. The finished job has the attractive look of brick or stone with a contrasting grout line.
The finished job is sealed with a protective coating which protects the product from dirt and stain and further fortifies the overall strength of the topping. Stencied concrete can be finished from a relatively smooth surface to a rough broomed or anti- slip finish where extra traction is required.
Caring for Stenciled concrete couldn't be easier. A quick hose down with a concrete cleaner together with a stiff broom will remove most marks.

It's application, using a Colour Hardener and sealers, provides that the surface is significantly tougher than concrete.
Once every couple of years Stenciled concrete may be resealed ensuring that your Stenciled concrete surface will remain as fresh as the day it was laid, year after year.
